"You are a third-year student, Kasumigaoka Utaha, right? I am a first-year teacher, Kirisu Mafuyu."
Kirisu Mafuyu shyly introduced herself.
Then she tried to maintain a serious expression.
"Yukima Azuma, along with Kasumigaoka Utaha, are you both living together outside of school?"
Normally, when Kirisu Mafuyu discovered such serious issues with a student's lifestyle, she would definitely get angry.
But at the mont, in this awkward situation, genuine anger couldn't really flare up.
Still, the questions that needed to be asked had to be asked.
At this point, Kasumigaoka Utaha had just finished changing her slippers.
Then she slowly and calmly explained:
"For personal reasons, I moved out during the spring break to live alone."
"Through a real estate agent, after considering factors like convenience to school, soundproofing, and comfort, I decided to rent this place."
"Kirisu-sensei, the truth is, the relationship between and Yukima is just a normal landlord-tenant relationship."
Kasumigaoka Utaha wasn't too worried.
First, both she and Yukima Azuma were excellent students at Toyogasaki Academy.
One was the top student of the third year, the other was the representative of the newly enrolled students.
Toyogasaki was always very tolerant towards both of them.
Moreover, after all, the reason they were living together was because of the rental agreent.
Although the intention behind it was certainly not pure, and their living situation had completely changed,
On the surface, it could still be reasonably explained.
Sure enough, after listening to Kasumigaoka's explanation, Kirisu Mafuyu's expression softened considerably.
However, still, this was about two high school students living together, wasn't it?
When Kirisu Mafuyu was about to say sothing else, Yukima Azuma lightly tugged on her sleeve.
She turned around.
Then she heard Yukima Azuma softly say:
"Utaha-senpai is the first friend I t when I first ca to Tokyo."
These words imdiately shattered Kirisu Mafuyu's psychological defenses.
Now, there was no way to object.
Just imagine.
The boy, still in elentary school, was kicked out of his ho by Yukima, and made his way to Tokyo from Chiba on his own.
The first friend he could call "senpai" that he t.
This teenage boy, alone, with no relatives, his family gone, was the only connection he had in Tokyo.
If anyone could still oppose this,
Could they even be considered human!?
So, Kirisu Mafuyu could only silently nod.
.....
The sky gradually darkened.
Yukima Azuma invited Kirisu Mafuyu to stay for dinner.
Afterward, Kirisu Mafuyu left Yukima's ho.
She tiredly returned to her rented room.
Kirisu Mafuyu walked through the cluttered hallway and collapsed onto the bed.
The information she had learned today was really too much.
Until now, she still couldn't process it all.
Kirisu Mafuyu felt she needed to rest for a while.
While lowering her head, suddenly her phone rang.
Kirisu Mafuyu picked it up and looked.
It was a ssage from the landlord notifying her about the rent paynt.
So Kirisu Mafuyu took out her phone, preparing to transfer the rent for the next term to the landlord.
But she stopped at the password input page.
Wait, since the apartnt is being rented to a student, it's fine for to rent there too, right?
This way, I can monitor those two. After all, living together in high school is still very risky, and if they're not careful, sothing big could happen!
Thinking this, Kirisu Mafuyu nodded.
She felt like she had co up with a good idea.
However, Kirisu Mafuyu didn't realize that,
After hearing Yukima Azuma's story, she had started to develop a vague, forgiving attitude towards everything related to him.
Due to Yukima Azuma's circumstances, she was afraid of hurting his feelings, fearing that he might do sothing extre in response.
With this attitude,
Don't even talk about monitoring them.
Even if Yukima Azuma and Kasumigaoka Utaha were doing sothing shady right in front of her,
As long as Yukima Azuma looked at her with puppy dog eyes,
Kirisu Mafuyu probably wouldn't be able to stop them.
(t/n: Omoshiroi)
....
On the other side,
At Yukima's house.
Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at Yukima Azuma in confusion.
"What did you an by that?"
She had clearly heard what Yukima Azuma said.
However, she didn't understand.
Why would a teacher who seed so serious and straightforward
suddenly change her attitude 180 degrees after hearing that statent?
She imdiately went from being uncertain to being agreeable.
Yukima Azuma shrugged.
"It was literal, Utaha-senpai is the first friend I made in Tokyo, and also my first love."
When she heard "first love," the corner of Kasumigaoka Utaha's mouth slightly curled up.
Still, she shot Yukima Azuma a glance.
He was starting to say sweet things to her again.
This guy's skills in pleasing won were really improving too quickly.
In every way.
But in reality, Yukima Azuma wasn't wrong.
At that ti, he had just regained his mories, looking around and seeing only strangers.
It felt sowhat like the main character in A Silent Voice (Koe no Katachi).
Passersby couldn't recognize his face; they only saw a big X on they face.
And in that situation,
In a corner of a bookstore,
Kasumigaoka Utaha ca into Yukima Azuma's view.
She was the only person Yukima Azuma "knew."
So, Yukima Azuma recklessly stepped forward.
"Really, who would say 'I love you, please marry ' the first ti they et?"
Kasumigaoka Utaha also recalled the scene when they first t, rembering Yukima Azuma's words.
She couldn't help but sigh,
But her eyes were filled with overflowing emotions.
"I had no other choice." Yukima Azuma shrugged. "This is the only way I could think of to attract senpai's attention."
...
The next day.
"Then, sorry to trouble you, Yukima-san!"
Kita Ikuyo bowed and handed her bass guitar to Yukima Azuma.
Yukima Azuma took it and handed Kita Ikuyo half of the paynt.
After school today, he had also arranged for Bocchi to et them and get acquainted.
"I'm not going anywhere. I still have work to do tonight."
Eriri lay on the table, tiredly speaking.
Anyone could tell that she hadn't gotten enough sleep the night before.
There was no choice.
She had to finish the manuscript as Kashiwagi Eri-sensei, as well as the illustrations for White Album that Yukima Azuma had asked her to do.
Everything had to be completed before the sumr Comiket.
Ti was running out.
After all, it was the illustration for a finished ga, so the workload was huge.
Thankfully, Yukima Azuma had helped her a little with the manuscript work beforehand.
Otherwise, by now, Eriri wouldn't just be tired, she would be near exhaustion.
This morning, during class,
Eriri had fallen into a deep sleep.
Kirisu Mafuyu looked at her, her gaze almost murderous.
Yukima Azuma clasped his hands together, trying to plead.
After several attempts, Eriri finally slept through an entire morning class.
After school,
Kirisu Mafuyu woke Eriri up and led both her and Yukima Azuma out of the classroom.
But not because of Eriri sleeping in class.
"Isn't your club using the multidia room upstairs?"
"But recently, the student council has taken over that room for the upcoming sumr festival."
"The club rooms have been fully allocated, so you might temporarily not have a club room to operate in."
Kirisu Mafuyu delivered the bad news.
Eriri blinked.
She was about to say that the student council shouldn't have taken their club room,
But after thinking for a mont, she realized, wasn't this a great opportunity?
Then, there was Yukima Azuma beside her.
"How about I go talk to the principal? I'll 'donate' so 'gifts' to the school?" Yukima Azuma said seriously.
Before he could finish his sentence,
Kirisu Mafuyu reached out, intending to pinch Yukima Azuma's ear.
"You student with this kind of problem, solve it like a student! Even if you have money, you can't do that!"
Yukima Azuma quickly dodged.
"Money, isn't it ant to make things easier for oneself and others?"
Kirisu Mafuyu rolled her eyes.
This rich kid!
No, it's this problematic student!
At that mont, Eriri interjected:
"Since you've said that, there's no choice but to find another place."
Saying that, she pulled Yukima Azuma along.
When they returned to the classroom,
Eriri excitedly suggested:
"Now there's no other choice, so the next club activity will be held at Yukima's house."
Yukima Azuma nodded upon hearing this.
It should be fine.
After all, in the club now, there were only Eriri and Kasumigaoka Utaha.
Kasumigaoka Utaha was still renting at Yukima's house.
Seeing that Yukima Azuma agreed, Eriri imdiately clenched her hand.
Great!
By the way,
Based on the progress of Kasumigaoka Utaha and Eriri's work,
The next club activity would take place on Friday afternoon after school.
....
That afternoon after school,
"gumi, do you have ti?"
"Yes."
"Then, will you co along?"
"Yes, I will."
After this brief conversation, the two of them walked toward Kita Ikuyo.
Kita Ikuyo looked at them, sensing that there was sothing strange about their relationship.
Their compatibility was almost excessive.
It was as if they were an old married couple, having been married for many years, at ho, and they could understand each other with just a glance or a few words.
Kita Ikuyo shook her head, trying to dismiss these strange thoughts.
Today, Yukima Azuma ca here to help her solve the trouble.
The eting spot was under the signpost in Shimokitazawa.
When the three of them arrived,
they saw a shadow sneaking around, crouching near the signpost, looking around cautiously.
"That person... isn't that one of Yukima-san's friends?" Kita Ikuyo asked.
She was the type to be bright and never looked at others with strange eyes for their unusual behavior.
Kita Ikuyo was just curious.
Since Yukima Azuma was always surrounded by beautiful girls, he didn't seem like the type to have such strange friends.
Kato gumi also curiously glanced at the shadowy figure.
Yukima Azuma didn't respond imdiately but stepped forward and lightly patted the pink hair of Bocchi.
Bocchi was startled.
But when she recognized it was Yukima Azuma,
she let out a relieved sigh, her tension easing.
"Azuma... Azuma-kun!"
Although her greeting still had so hesitation,
it was much more courageous than the last ti they t.
"It's been a while, Bocchi."
"Hmm, but didn't we just et last Saturday?"
"It's been a few days. You know the saying 'a day apart feels like three seasons apart,' right?"
"Ah, is that so? I... I understand now."
As the two were talking, Kita Ikuyo and Kato gumi also walked closer.
When Bocchi saw strangers coming near,
she imdiately hid behind Yukima Azuma.
She clutched the hem of his shirt, peeking out with only half of her head showing.
Ahh! It's those beautiful high school girls—are they here to scold ? Is it because I'm standing too close to Azuma-kun?
Am I going to be told, "Hey, you weird person, don't co near that handso guy!"?
Today, Gotoh Hitori mind was once again filled with dramatic thoughts.
